What Is Nonwoven Fabric?

Nonwoven fabric is a sheet, web or batt made from fibers that are bonded together through mechanical, thermal, chemical or composite processes instead of traditional weaving or knitting. It offers flexible structure, stable production efficiency and broad design possibilities.

Process-Driven Structure

Material performance varies by bonding process, fiber type, web formation, surface treatment and post-processing.

Multiple Raw Materials

Common materials include PP, PET, PLA, viscose, ES fiber and wood pulp composite structures.

Lightweight & Breathable

Nonwovens can be engineered for softness, air permeability, absorbency, filtration or barrier performance.

Scalable & Cost-Controlled

Suitable for high-volume production with customizable specifications, colors, finishes and packaging formats.

Standard Parameters and Customizable Options

The following fields can be used on material listing pages, product detail pages and inquiry forms to help customers confirm procurement feasibility.

Parameter Available Options
Basis Weight 10–300 gsm for standard product lines; heavier ranges available for needle-punched or industrial materials.
Width Standard roll widths and maximum production widths can be customized according to application and machine capability.
Thickness Defined by process, fiber structure, bonding method and basis weight.
Color White, black, blue, green and customized colors based on order quantity and sample approval.
Roll Length Standard roll length or customized roll length according to converting, storage and shipping requirements.
Surface Treatment Hydrophilic, water-repellent, antibacterial, anti-static, flame-retardant and other functional treatments.
Post-processing Slitting, lamination, embossing, printing, perforation, coating and film-laminated structures.
Packaging Roll packing, sheet packing, individual packing, export cartons, pallets and container loading support.

Select Materials by Production Technology

Process classification is one of the most practical ways to organize a nonwoven material website. Each process creates different strength, softness, filtration, absorbency, thickness and cost characteristics.

FAQs

Selection depends on application, strength, softness, absorbency, filtration, barrier performance, budget and converting requirements.

Higher gsm generally means more material weight and may affect thickness, strength, absorbency, opacity and cost.

Yes. Color, printing and embossing can be customized based on material type, order quantity and sample approval.

Standard material samples and customized samples can be arranged according to project requirements.

MOQ depends on material process, specification, color, functional treatment and post-processing requirements.

Testing depends on the target product and market. Common requirements may involve barrier, cleanliness, safety or functional performance indicators.

PP is widely used for cost-effective mass production, while PLA is a bio-based option for biodegradable product concepts.

Lead time depends on material availability, customization complexity, order quantity, testing requirements and shipping plan.
